Personal Care

Mobile Care can offer you as little or as much help as you require with your personal care to ensure your usual standards of personal and private hygiene are maintained.

This may include help with:

• Bathing, showering, toileting and oral hygiene

• Dressing and getting ready for bed

• Applying creams and lotions

• Foot care, especially if diabetic

• Changing your position in bed to prevent bed sores

• Managing and changing stomas or catheter bags.

Perhaps you'd just like a little bit of pampering such as having your hair styled, having your nails filed and varnished or help with shaving.  Or maybe you’d like us to organise your laundry and change your bed so you have lovely fresh bed linen to sleep in.

When we sit down with you to discuss your care plan we will include your likes and dislikes, favourite hygiene and beauty products and set out specific instructions for your carer with regards to how you would like particular tasks, such as foot care or shaving, to be carried out.

Our carers are extensively trained in personal care and will always be discreet, maintain your dignity and be respectful of your personal boundaries, doing everything possible to ensure you feel comfortable. They are also trained to encourage independence and will give you space to carry out the personal care tasks you would prefer to do yourself.

Please get in touch if you have any questions.
